I don't remember the manufacturer, but there used to be available a
serial terminal that used a standard PC monitor & keyboard. I had thought
it was Wyse, but I can't find any info on their website in either current or
discontinued products. However, it is possible to use the Wyse thin clients
as ASCII terminals. You could get the 1U monitor & keyboard, attach this to
a Wyse thin client and connect through a switch such as Lantronix's Server
Console Switch (formerly Lightwave Communications) and you would be able to
access large numbers of servers through rs-232 ports.
One side note: I recently tried to get a serial console from IBM and
found that they do not even sell ASCII terminals anymore.

So it's NOT a serial terminal ... it's a monitor. I'd be really interested
in the serial terminal, myself.

We use a 1u flat panel with an apex 8 port kvm switch, works great,
expensive, easy config

Subject: Flatpanel rackmount 1U serial terminal?
Folks,
Is anyone currently using a 1U rackmount serial terminal with an LCD
display and keyboard in one drawer? We have one from IBM for a standard
monitor and keyboard, but we're going to be getting a bunch of new AIX
boxes, and would like to replace the 3153 with something smaller, so we
don't use up as much space in the rack, and don't have to buy video
cards for all the servers.
Basically, it's a 1 or 2U serial terminal with an LCD display - anyone
using such a critter?
Thanks...
